【What did we talk about in this episode】
In this episode, Cindy and Cathy discuss the common stereotypes others have against Taiwanese. The stereotypes we discussed today are “Taiwanese are familiar with the living patterns in every city of Taiwan” and “Taiwanese use LINE for everything.”
Is it true? Is there any reason that contributes to the stereotype? Listen on and stay tuned!
